  15 H1167 But if the owner H7999 [H8762] of it shall be with it, he shall not make it good: H7916 if it be an hired H935 [H8804] thing, it came H7939 for his hire.

  21 H3238 [H8686] Thou shalt neither maltreat H1616 a guest, H3905 [H8799] nor oppress H1616 him: for ye were guests H776 in the land H4714 of Egypt.
  22 H6031 [H8762] Ye shall not afflict H490 any widow, H3490 or fatherless child.
  23 H518 If H6031 [H8762] thou shalt afflict H6031 [H8763] them in any way, H6817 [H8799] and they shriek H6817 [H8800] at all H8085 [H8800] to me, I will surely H8085 [H8799] hear H6818 their shriek;
  24 H639 And my anger H2734 [H8804] shall burn, H2026 [H8804] and I will kill H2719 you with the sword; H802 and your wives H490 shall be widows, H1121 and your sons H3490 fatherless.

  27 H3682 For that is his only covering, H8071 it is his raiment H5785 for his skin: H7901 [H8799] what shall he sleep in? H6817 [H8799] and it shall come to pass, when he shrieketh H8085 [H8804] to me, that I will hear; H2587 for I am gracious.
  28 H7043 [H8762] Thou shalt not revile H430 the judges, H779 [H8799] nor curse H5387 the ruler H5971 of thy people.
  29 H309 [H8762] Thou shalt not delay H4395 to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, H1831 and of thy liquors: H1060 the firstborn H1121 of thy sons H5414 [H8799] shalt thou give to me.
  30 H3651 Likewise H6213 [H8799] shalt thou do H7794 with thy oxen, H6629 and with thy sheep: H7651 seven H3117 days H517 it shall be with his dam; H8066 on the eighth H3117 day H5414 [H8799] thou shalt give it to me.
  31 H6944 And ye shall be holy H582 men H398 [H8799] to me: neither shall ye eat H1320 any flesh H2966 that is torn of beasts H7704 in the field; H7993 [H8686] ye shall cast H3611 it to the dogs.

Romans 13:4

  4 G1063 For G2076 [G5748] he is G1249 the servant G2316 of God G4671 to thee G1519 for G18 good. G1161 But G1437 if G4160 [G5725] thou doest G2556 that which is bad, G5399 [G5737] be afraid; G1063 for G5409 [G5719] he beareth G3756 not G3162 the sword G1500 in vain: G1063 for G2076 [G5748] he is G1249 the servant G2316 of God, G1558 an avenger G3709 to execute wrath G1519 upon G4238 [G5723] him that doeth G2556 bad.

Genesis 9:5-6

  5 H389 And surely H1818 your blood H5315 of your breaths H1875 [H8799] will I require; H3027 at the hand H2416 of every beast H1875 [H8799] will I require it, H3027 and at the hand H120 of man; H3027 at the hand H376 of every man's H251 brother H1875 [H8799] will I require H5315 the breath H120 of man.
  6 H8210 [H8802] Whoever sheddeth H120 man's H1818 blood, H120 by man H1818 shall his blood H8210 [H8735] be shed: H6754 for in the image H430 of God H6213 [H8804] made H120 he man.

Matthew 5:38-39

  38 G191 [G5656] { Ye have heard G3754 that G4483 [G5681] it hath been said, G3788 An eye G473 for G3788 an eye, G2532 and G3599 a tooth G473 for G3599 a tooth:}
  39 G1161 { But G1473 I G3004 [G5719] say G5213 to you, G436 [G5629] That ye resist G3361 not G4190 evil: G235 but G3748 whoever G4474 [G5692] shall slap G4571 thee G1909 on G4675 thy G1188 right G4600 cheek, G4762 [G5657] turn G846 to him G3588 the G243 other G2532 also.}

Romans 13:1-14

  1 G3956 Let every G5590 breath (person) G5293 [G5732] be subject G1849 to the authorities G5242 [G5723] being superior. G1063 For G2076 [G5748] there is G3756 no G1849 authority G1508 except G575 from G2316 God: G1161 and G3588 the G1849 authorities G5607 [G5752] existing, G1526 [G5748] are G5021 [G5772] arranged G5259 by G3588   G2316 God.
  2 G5620 Whoever therefore G498 [G5734] resisteth G1849 the authority, G436 [G5758] resisteth G1296 the ordinance G2316 of God: G1161 and G436 [G5761] they that resist G2983 [G5695] shall receive G1438 to themselves G2917 condemnation.
  3 G1063 For G758 rulers G1526 [G5748] are G3756 not G5401 a fear G3588 of the ones G18 of good G2041 works, G235 but G3588 of the ones G2556 of bad. G2309 [G5719] Wilt thou G1161 then G3361 not G5399 [G5738] be afraid G3588 of the G1849 authority? G4160 [G5720] do G18 that which is good, G2532 and G2192 [G5692] thou shalt have G1868 high praise G1537 from G846 the same:
  4 G1063 For G2076 [G5748] he is G1249 the servant G2316 of God G4671 to thee G1519 for G18 good. G1161 But G1437 if G4160 [G5725] thou doest G2556 that which is bad, G5399 [G5737] be afraid; G1063 for G5409 [G5719] he beareth G3756 not G3162 the sword G1500 in vain: G1063 for G2076 [G5748] he is G1249 the servant G2316 of God, G1558 an avenger G3709 to execute wrath G1519 upon G4238 [G5723] him that doeth G2556 bad.
  5 G1352 Therefore G318 it is a necessity G5293 [G5733] to be subject, G3756 not G3440 only G1223 because of G3588 the G3709 wrath, G235 but G2532 also G1223 because of G3588 the G4893 conscience.
  6 G1063 For G1223 because of G5124 this G5055 [G5719] ye fulfill G5411 tribute G2532 also: G1063 for G1526 [G5748] they are G2316 God's G3011 ministers, G4342 [G5723] attending constantly G1519 unto G5124 this G846 very thing.
  7 G591 [G5628] Render G3767 therefore G3956 to all G3782 their dues: G5411 tribute G3588 to whom G5411 tribute G5056 is due; custom G3588 to whom G5056 custom; G5401 fear G3588 to whom G5401 fear; G5092 honour G3588 to whom G5092 honour.
  8 G3784 [G5720] Owe G3367 no man G3367 any thing, G1508 but G25 [G5721] to love G240 one another: G1063 for G25 [G5723] he that loveth G2087 another G4137 [G5758] hath fulfilled G3551 the law.

Romans 13:10-14

  10 G26 Love G2038 [G5736] worketh G3756 no G2556 bad G4139 to one's neighbour: G3767 therefore G26 love G4138 is the fulfilling G3551 of the law.
  11 G2532 And G5124 this, G1492 [G5761] knowing G3588 the G2540 season, G3754 that G2248 for us G2235 already G5610 it is the hour G1453 [G5683] to awake G1537 from out of G5258 sleep: G1063 for G3568 now G2257 is our G4991 salvation G1452 nearer G2228 than G3753 when G4100 [G5656] we believed.

Romans 13:9-14

  9 G1063 For G3431 0 this, Thou shalt G3756 not G3431 [G5692] commit adultery, G5407 0 Thou shalt G3756 not G5407 [G5692] murder, G2813 0 Thou shalt G3756 not G2813 [G5692] steal, G5576 0 Thou shalt G3756 not G5576 [G5692] bear false witness, G1937 0 Thou shalt G3756 not G1937 [G5692] covet; G2532 and G1536 if there is any G2087 other G1785 commandment, G346 [G5743] it is briefly comprehended G1722 in G5129 this G3056 saying, G1722 namely, G25 [G5692] Thou shalt love G4675 thy G4139 neighbour G5613 as G1438 thyself.

Romans 13:12-14

  12 G3571 The night G4298 [G5656] is far spent, G1161   G2250 the day G1448 [G5758] is at hand: G659 0 let us G3767 therefore G659 [G5643] cast off G2041 the works G4655 of darkness, G2532 and G1746 [G5672] let us put on G3696 the armour G5457 of light.
  13 G4043 [G5661] Let us walk G2156 decorously, G5613 as G1722 in G2250 the day; G3361 not G2970 in revellings G2532 and G3178 drunkenness, G3361 not G2845 in beds G2532 and G766 lasciviousness, G3361 not G2054 in strife G2532 and G2205 zeal.
  14 G235 But G1746 [G5669] put ye on G2962 the Lord G2424 Jesus G5547 Anointed, G2532 and G4160 [G5732] make G3361 not G4307 provision G1519 for G1939 the lusts G4561 of flesh.

Romans 12:19

  19 G27 Dearly beloved, G1556 [G5723] avenge G3361 not G1438 yourselves, G235 but G1325 [G5628] rather give G5117 place G3709 to wrath: G1063 for G1125 [G5769] it is written, G1557 Vengeance G1698 is mine; G1473 I G467 [G5692] will repay, G3004 [G5719] saith G2962 the Lord.

Exodus 22:2-3

  2 H1590 If a thief H4672 [H8735] shall be found H4290 breaking through, H5221 [H8717] and be smitten H4191 [H8804] that he die, H1818 there shall no blood be shed for him.
  3 H8121 If the sun H2224 [H8804] shall have risen H1818 upon him, there shall be blood H7999 [H8763] shed for him; for he should make full H7999 [H8762] restitution; H4376 [H8738] if he have nothing, then he shall be sold H1591 for his theft.
